No need to thank me for that cringingly bad joke. The work is its own reward.

I was apprehensive at first about The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Basing a movie on a clip from Fantasia (or the old German poem if you want to be technical) sounded a little silly. Especially since the dancing hippos are clearly the best part of the film. But when it was announced that Jay Baruchel would be the lead in it, I became interested. From what I've seen, it looks to be an absolute blast, and undoubtedly, the choice of kids this weekend.

For those not kids, I think it's safe to say that Inception is the movie of choice this weekend. It's got all the key elements of a great film and I'm psyched to see it. Who doesn't love a good film about crawling through dreams? With that in mind I've been getting in the mood by watching other 'dream' films.

Here's my suggestion for a dream theme marathon:

3. The Goodnight - I've talked about it before a couple months back so I won't recycle a review, but the link will take you to the old one. Just skip past my talk of hoping the new Nightmare on Elm Street would be good. *Sigh* I was so young and innocent.

2. The Science of Sleep - Michel Gondry's fantastic and sad love story featuring a man who inverts dreams and reality. Incredible blend of live action and animation make for bizarre and incredible dreamscapes.

1. Waking Life - An amazing film from Richard Linklater that explores dreams in a unique approach. The rotoscoping that he would also later use for A Scanner Darkly is visually stunning.

So now my question to you this weekend: What's your favorite dream related movie?

Have a great weekend everyone!

I am looking forward to 'Inception' very much. I am turning into a fan of Leonardo and that scares me worse than anything besides the octopus. Add Ellen Pag and Christopher Nolan to the mix and I am actually leaving the Cave of Cool to see this one. Beside, the theatre has the best hotdogs in the city.

Christopher Nolan is the exact reason why I am interested in Inception. He jumped into my top 5 favorite directors list, a while ago, and has yet to give me any reason to take him off. Oh, sorry TS, what I meant to say was, of course, that your recommendation was the biggest reason for me to see it. Which is followed immediately by Cal's willingness to leave the cave for it, with Christopher Nolan coming in at a distant third. My bad.

My favorite dream related movie?I would have to say "Sense And Sensibility." I slept really well during that film and had some wonderful dreams.
